Can replit compile to .APK file?

[NeelGupta8]

Can Replit compile code to Android (or iOS) executables ?
This is a repeat question…
• https://replit.com/talk/ask/Can-we-make-iOS-or-Android-apps-using-replit/52724
… But the forum says " The info in this post might be out of date, check out our docs instead. View docs "

…and nothing I found on the thread, or Replit docs seem helpful for compiling mobile apps, written in Java/C++/Cython/etc.

Hi @NeelGupta8 , welcome to the forums!
I believe you cannot use .apk files in Replit. Maybe take a look at this topic?

Could I upload a .apk file INTO Replit

Hey, I was just wondering if I could upload .apk files into Replit, and then run them. I was wondering how to use .apk files because .exe probably wont work due to the Replit terminal being basically linux. I want to try to upload some apps like browsers or games. Its a simple question. If I can, that would be great.

Hope this helps!

That topic is about running APK files, this topic is about compiling APK files.

I was talking about compiling/exporting . APK files from code written in Java/C++/Cython/etc.
(NOT about running . APK files on Replit)

I don’t have specific knowledge on this but it should work like normal, but executing is probably not something you can do. Maybe just try it and see?
